Interessed to use Qt Lottie Animation renderer, but somewhat limited...

I'm currently using Qt 5.15.2. Reading the Qt documentation, I found a very interesting module named Qt Lottie Animation, which would allow to draw animated images based on Json. This would be a very interesting alternative to using animated SVG images, which are complicated to develop for my design team (miss of tools, necessity to learn script rules, ...) and also because the SVG plugin presents itself many limitations in Qt, and is not really well maintained (At least it is my point of view).

So I tested this module with the following code...

import QtQuick 2.15
import QtQuick.Window 2.15

import Qt.labs.lottieqt 1.0

// NOTE See: https://doc.qt.io/qt-5/qml-qt-labs-lottieqt-lottieanimation.html
Window
{
    visible: true
    width: 640
    height: 480
    title: qsTr("Lottie Animation")

    Rectangle
    {
        anchors.fill: parent
        color: "white"

        LottieAnimation
        {
            anchors.fill: parent
            quality: LottieAnimation.HighQuality
            source: "qrc:/Resources/animation.json"
            autoPlay: true

            onStatusChanged:
            {
                if (status === LottieAnimation.Ready)
                {
                    console.log("Begin playing");
                }
            }

            onFinished:
            {
                console.log("Finished playing");
            }
        }
    }
}

...and the following images:

And, well, it works, but...

The animation and rendering are very bugged. The animation may not work at all, whereas the rendering causes glitches or may miss important features like line dashing
The image is not stretched, and I couldn't find any option to do that. More generally it seems that very few options are provided to control the rendering and animation

First of all, I perhaps missed something. Are there existing solutions to the issues I presented above?

And if not, is this module planned to be maintained and improved in the future, or will it be just provided as is, with very incomplete features and a little abandoned, as it was the case for the SVG module, or can I count on improvements and bug fixes in the future, e.g in Qt6?
